So my travels in Guatemala started off with just under a week in Guatemala City.
Here I volunteered for a few days and visited some of the partner programs that we work with in Guatemala City, such as elderly homes, a soup kitchen and clinics.

This was the chapel we re-painted before

and the courtyard

Coming soon - the after pictures!
I then spent Friday night in Antigua.

At a very posh hotel

It was then on to Panjachal and to visit Lake Atitlan - the most beautiful lake in the world.


Then on Sunday Morning we went to Chichicastenengo, to visit one of the largest markets in Central America


It was then a 4 hour bus ride to Quezaltenango.

I stayed there for 2 nights at our program there, visited a few placements and some areas of interest that the volunteers visit and it was a 6 hour bus ride back to Guatemala City to fly home on the Wednesday!
